• Changes made: If you have made any changes (apart from personal information), also include them to help debugging.
  No changes made

• Description: Provide a detailed description about the issue and include specific details to help us understand the problem. Adding screenshots will help describing the problem.

• Steps to reproduce: List the step by step process to reproduce the issue.
  Configured two agenda's: one in Google Apps (google Business), and one within a regular Gmail account.
  Create one event that spans several days, in both agenda's
  The Google apps for business one will import. The gmail calendar entry results in the shown error.

• Results: Describe what you expected to see and what you actually saw.
  Expectation is that agenda will be imported and shown on the display. It actually breaks the program, resulting in the program to exit.

• Additional Notes: Provide any other relevant notes not previously mentioned. This is optional.

One time trigger functions in e-paper.py (instead of starting the loop?)

Is there a way to get back to the console after opening E-Paper.py? I'm testint out different settings and designs and it gets a bit annoying to open up a new putty window everytime I've refreshed the screen (thanks for the output to file btw, saves time!)

Maybe there's a button combo i don't know about to return to console? Or otherwise maybe a setting I could edit to stop the loop from starting?

Design "Agenda-List" gets stuck if there are not enough events

Since agenda-list is trying to fill the screen with future events, it gets stuck in some kind of loop if there are none. Maybe some kind of max days into the future is needed to limit the look up time.

Nothing written to display

Program runs successfully and design_exported.png is created, but nothing is rendered to the display. I've confirmed that the display works with the example programs that come from waveshare.

Not showing any display on 7in5b_V2 display.

I have 7.5 inch 3 color 7.5inch e-Paper HAT (B) V2. Display blank as initialization file Epd7in5b_V2Adapter.py is not available in the Calendar folder. Please update with the file Epd7in5b_V2Adapter.py . Only old version display file Epd7in5bAdapter.py is available and is not working on the V2 model (480x800) as the commands are different. Thanks.
